EMBED

ELISABETH WOLFF: We have a very popular magazine, a weekly glossy magazine called News. And News sent a young undercover journalist to attend two of the three of my seminars on Islam that I had been invited to give on behalf of Austrian Freedom Party. It was infltrated. This young journalist actually had a microphone just like mine, just like the one in front. She didn't tell me that she was recording my words. And the story broke in late November of last year.

There was huge outrage. There was a huge, huge report -- about 15 pages of this weekly glossy. And you can imagine that the entire political and religious establishment -- not just the Muslims, but you had the Catholics, you had the Protestants, you had the Jews -- the Jewish establishment, the religious group, I'm sorry -- complain about my words. "You can't say that." I even had it in my own family: "You cannot say what you said." And no matter what I say in reply -- well, how can you say that Islam is supremacist, it is against women's rights, it's against human rights, it's against everything you and I believe in -- I always get the answer, "Well, you have to say it in some other way." And I ask them, "Well, how? Give me an example so I can change my words. I'm willing to listen." But I get no answer, which is kind of frustrating. But it also tells me that I'm doing the right thing.

Pam Geller says the Christmas Day "balls bomber ... has more balls than our political elite, don't you think?"

      Considering everything they believe in is white, Christian male hegemony, I have to agree.

      I've found that it's pretty similar to Christianity. Both are tools that have the possibility for abuse. Christians have just convinced themselves that if you replaced Christianity with Islam in Iran, it would be a glorious utopia. In fact, I'll wager that at a glance, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

      Most religions are supremacist. How could they continue to exist in their hierarchical forms if religion preached "Oh, sure, those guys are right too. They'll get to party it up in heaven with us"? Who would care about believing in a specific faith or any faith at all, for that matter? Religion would stop being the tool that it is if not for the playing on the human fear of death saying "We're right. Do what we say, and you'll get "eternal life". Anyone else that tells you their way is the right way, is wrong. Oh, and they're probably evil "satan" worshipers."

      These people most likely have never studied Islam or read the Qur'an, but they profess to be experts on the subject.

      With comments like this I have to ask why is it so difficult for them to differentiate between radical Islam and main stream Islam? There is no supremacist teaching in Islam and they would have known that if they took the time to educate themselves. The fear mongering is old.

      I wish i knew what she believes in that Islam doesn't.

      Charity? Prayer? That Jesus was one of the great ones? That a woman can divorce her husband? Or is she mixing up Islam with ancient culture the same way jihadists mix up Christianity with American Imperialism?
